Turbo Chameleon 64 is an extremely user-friendly cartridge that can be used without opening the computer. It is just plugged to the expansion port of the C64.
The Turbo Chameleon 64 cartridge can also be operated as a stand-alone unit (since it’s basically an FPGA computer like the C-One or the Minimig in a C64 cartridge case), replacing the computer, the floppy drive and the heavy power supply.
When used as a stand-alone unit, a USB power adapter or active USB hub can be used as a power source.
Changelog:
Beta-5 to Beta-5a:
- Fix crash when turbo limit is set in menu without activating turbo. (or when disabling active turbo with button while a limit is set)
- Fix D030 mirror of the turbo bit emulating C128 2Mhz mode with Chameleon turbo.
Beta-5a to Beta-5b:
- Eliminate spurious resets by masking reset line in standalone mode.
- Fix keyboard matrix so joysticks are properly emulated (IR, numpad) in standalone mode.
- Block normal button functions in menu mode (only exception is reboot by pressing 0.7s on right button)

Retro Innovations ROM-el:
To program the ROM-el chip by Retro Innovations you need a Adapter. The ROM-el chip uses a Atmel flashrom AT49F001AN (128K x 8) and we must build an adapter that converts the pins of the 2364 PROM Commodore 64 Kernel, which is used in ROM-el chip, to the original state of the chip AT49F001.
After this work, you can use the Willem programmer to program the FlashROM with one or more C64 kernel.
iAN CooG Site has been update with a new version of the Generic C64 prg Unpacker v2.25 (Source included).
History:
2.25 – 2011.01.12-2011.05.05
- Fixed a logic bug that only happened on non-packers, causing an endless loop in pass 1; now falls in the max_iter check and will break as expected.
- Fixed possible division by 0 error in sysline detection when “/” was found.
- Intros are now scanned after packers, to avoid false positives (valid code found inside charpacked files)
For the latest scanners added look the readme inside the archive.

Sorry, this entry is only available in Italian.
SID Known is a command line tool (M$ Windows) which you can use to identify SID tunes from SID and PRG files.
This tool can be used if e.g. you want to know which SID tune is used in a specific C64 demo or C64 game, or you have a SID tune found or ripped and you want to know if it is already in your SID collection.
